- "There were, however, in the East, from the early days up to the end of the fifth century, certain writings, closely related to each other, and which were in reality brief canon law treatises on ecclesiastical administration the duties of the clergy and the faithful, and especially on the liturgy. We refer to works attributed to the Apostles, very popular in the Oriental Churches, though devoid of official authority, and which may be called pseudo-epigraphic, rather than apocryphal. The principal writings of this kind are the "Teaching of the Twelve Apostles" or "Didache", the "Didascalia", based on the "Didache"; the "Apostolic Constitutions", an expansion of the two preceding works; then the "Apostolic Church Ordinance", the "Definitio canonica SS. Apostolorum", the "Testament of the Lord" and the "Octateuch of Clement"; lastly the "Apostolic Canons". Of all this literature, only the "Apostolic Canons" werein cluded in the canonical collections of the Greek Church. The most important of these documents the "Apostolic Constitutions", was removed by the Second Canon of the Council in Trullo (692), as having been interpolated by the heretics. As to the eighty-five Apostolic Canons, accepted by the same council, they rank yet first in the above-mentioned "Apostolic" collection; the first fifty translated into Latin by Dionysius Exiguus (c. 500), were included in the Western collections and afterwards in the "Corpus Juris"."

Article introduction does not make sense.
[edit]In the first sentence the article states, "...collection of eight treatises which belongs the...", which does not make sense. I believe it should read "...which belongs to the...", as this makes the most sense to me, but as I am no scholar of RC theology I cannot be 100% certain (just 99.9%). Regardless it is incorrect English as it stands and needs to be fixed by someone who doesn't somehow manage to unintentionally fuck up articles every time he tries to fix anything the way I do. This is not the only error in the introduction, much less the entire article, but it is the most glaring one I have noticed. GlassDeviant (talk) 16:42, 31 October 2016 (UTC)
